Reindeer Games: A Holiday Romance Novella: Denver Defiant, #1.5

By Finley Chuva

Charlotte Sutton is an honest person. Perhaps that's why, when she does lie, it turns into a mess. She invented a girlfriend as a way to get out of one too many hangouts with her Denver Defiant teammates, but now it's coming back to bite her.

 

Danielle "Dani" Gilbert is not Charlotte's girlfriend. But she's also not one to turn down an all-expenses-paid ski resort getaway, even if it means pretending that she is. After all, it's only three days, and she and Charlotte will just be two friends doing a little acting. What could possibly go wrong?

 

Except for the fact that Charlotte maybe, possibly, might want the whole thing to be real.

 

So. There is that.

 

Reindeer Games is a sapphic holiday romance novella. It is part of the Denver Defiant series but can be read as a standalone.

Finley Chuva

When Finley Chuva was twelve years old, she started sneaking 1980s Harlequins out of her aunt’s basement, and she hasn’t stopped reading romance novels since. Now she writes her own love stories with significantly more queerness and less usage of the word “mousy.” She loves tea of any kind and Flamin’ Hot Cheetos (preferably not together). She lives with her wife and their assortment of pets in Paraguay. THE GAME CHANGER is her first novel.
